To survive in a traumatized, ego-centric culture filled with counterfeit images, we pay a steep price - trauma & pain in our disconnected bodies, loneliness & broken-heartedness in our relationships, an unmet longing for passionate, meaningful engagement with the world. Crisis, illness, pain, suffering & despair become the catalyst for change, awakening our yearning for a more courageous, authentic, embodied life. Speaking to us through symptoms, grief, longings, images, dreams- the soul calls us- beckoning us into the unknown, asking us to surrender what no longer serves us. I help people grow stronger and navigate this wilderness.

Hello! I'm so glad you're here. Looking for a therapist can be a daunting task but you're taking the first steps. I'm a licensed counselor and provisionally licensed art therapist. I work with teens and adults on issues such as depression, anxiety, disordered eating, self-esteem, and stress.

I provide a combination of evidence-based and relational therapies to provide individuals, couples, and families the best possible outcomes toward their goals. Combining compassion and information to help people identify the specific obstacles in their lives that hold them back from being satisfied and content in their lives, I help them decide on a plan of action to effect the change in their life that they desire. My goal is to provide you with the tools you need and work together to learn how to effectively implement them and utilize them for life.

Whether you have been through a traumatic experience, or dealing with difficulties in life, I offer a unique approach in learning to regulate your emotional and psychological states, in which your world becomes a better place to manage and ENJOY. I use a variety of methods for children and adults to help strengthen their relationship and improve communication skills, as well as provide a safe and nurturing environment where children and families can reach their potential to be more successful in the world. Treatment may include: * Neurofeedback Training * Cognitive-Behavioral Interventions * Collaborative problem solving approach * EMDR

We don’t always have control over the things that happen to us in life, but we do have control over how we choose to respond to them. When we know ourselves, and family patterns, & have the power to own our own history we are better equipped to meet these challenges & establish healthy patterns. I believe in a person-centered, integrative, strengths-based, bio-psychosocial approach. Regardless of your story, it is your own & as such you are the expert. My role is to help assist you along your journey by helping to facilitate a deeper understanding of who you are while reminding you of the importance of self-compassion & self-care.

As a therapist, my goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Sometimes we encounter hardships that seem too overwhelming or painful to manage. These struggles may occur in marriage, family relationships, parenting, at work, or coping with every-day life. They can be destabilizing, leaving us feeling hopeless and helpless. I believe these uncomfortable emotions can often be a window of opportunity to look deeper into what has happened, our role in it, and our reaction to it. Within these moments, we can unravel our own inner wisdom to help us heal and grow.

My approach is to help families, couple and individuals create healthier, happier and more meaningful relationships and lives for themselves. I draw most heavily from Family Systems Theory, Humanistic and Cognitive/Behavioral therapy approaches however, I use a variety of modalities and tailor therapy to each client's needs and personality. My goal is to provide each client a safe and supportive environment in which to express them self.

In my practice as a counselor, I believe that relationships are both formative and transformative. Most people find a connection between their relationships and the struggles they experience in their lives. Therefore, I approach counseling from an interpersonal perspective. In our sessions together, I will ask questions about your past and current relationships and their contribution to the issues that bring you to therapy. Where appropriate, I also incorporate cognitive-behavioral techniques in my practice. In addition to our time directly together, you may also be asked to complete homework between sessions in order to provide continuity between sessions.

It is my passion to use the powerful benefits of EMDR and clinical hypnosis to help you leave upsetting thoughts and symptoms behind. There is a disconnect between talk therapy and the negative feelings and memories you hold in your sensory/body system. EMDR connects your sensory memories with the rational part of your mind so you can leave distressing events in the past where they belong. I've added clinical hypnosis to my toolbox to help you learn calm your mind and body, and find your internal resources. You are naturally wired for healing. Together, we will move you into healing so you can enjoy your life.

I will support you using the best counseling approach for your needs while encouraging your faith as a fundamental tool for healing.
